19"s.. OUCH! How much do they weigh?
I couldn't pull those off around these parts, roads are too rough. I would give it about a month before I dented one of the front wheels.
Djomlas has a great set of wheels which I don't think were too expensive.
Personally I wouldn't spend more than $1400 on any cast alloy wheel. If you're going over $2K get forged wheels. The cast alloy wheels will bend like a pepsi can, and that includes my factory 5 spoke Carreras. Luckily I bought them when the Euro wasn't as strong for $1900.
Check out ccwheel.com they're gaining a reputation for rock bottom prices on forged wheels. They have a mesh wheels similar to the wheels on Ebay that work on Boxsters and remarkably weigh 20 pounds just like Carrer light wheels.
